Burrower

Burrower Rodentia are esteemed for their exceptional burrowing abilities and close-knit family structures. Standing at about 3 feet in height, these rodents possess clawed hands, large incisors, and may or may not sport tails. Their compact size and specialized adaptations make them adept at navigating subterranean environments with ease.

Living in large family groups, Burrower Rodentia thrive in communal settings where they work together to construct intricate networks of tunnels and burrows beneath the earth. These burrows serve as both shelter and protection, providing sanctuary from predators and the elements.

While they prefer the company of their kin, some Burrower Rodentia may choose more solitary living conditions, venturing out on their own to explore new territories or pursue personal endeavors. Despite this occasional independence, they remain deeply connected to their family roots, often returning to their burrow communities to share news and resources.
